So my explorer wont hold idle when warmed up and stall.
ive done a search of the forum and found a few possible causes like
idle air control and MAF- which is clean
coils- its not miss firing
idle control- havent checked this
inertia switch- as above
battery- getting a new one tomorrow
fuel filter- changing tomorrow

there is no vacuum hoses loose/ damaged either

the transmission also makes a whining noise. its not clunky or anything shifts smoothly. could this be causing my problem?

Has anyone else had this problem and can point me in the right dirrection

are there any other things ive missed that may cause it to stall before i take it to the shop to check it out and have to spend my Xmas holiday money on the EX
 












Did you replace the IAC? Mine wouldn't clean, fixed it with new one
